The shutdown in on schedule. The most recent power outage did not go smoothly. Somehow the Diesel power generator was not switched on resulting some of the MCS computer disks to crash. The COT work started after the plug was opened on Monday. This is to beat down the COT electrical noises to improve the 3D XFT track purity.
Steve said the iFix upgrade is going pretty well. Only Plug and Silicon systems are not upgraded yet. Once all computers are upgraded, Mark and Jim will use the network to setup initialization. Steve is going to purchase 3 USB Camac controller. Two units are assigned for Pisabox and Muon Scintillators. The third one is a spare. These controllers cost about $2600 each.
The HVMON is not working at the moment. Yeongdae will resume his work after the network is restored in a few days. He also needs an iFix key for his laptop.
